Guan Chong: Allocates about RM280m to build cocoa grinding facility in Cote D'Ivoire. Guan Chong has set aside between approximately RM230 to RM280m to construct a new 60,000 metric tonne (MT) cocoa grinding facility in a West African country, Cote D'Ivoire. The new facility would see GCB operations expand to a major cocoa bean producing country and at the same time allow the group to grow its Europe market presence due to the close proximity and similar time zone. The new factory is expected to be commissioned in the first quarter of 2021, which would bring the group’s total grinding capacity to 310,000 MT, from 250,000 MT currently. (Bernama)
Its hard to explain the drop in share price on 10/10. Market participants sometimes behave strangely. Always share price sudden drop on that day of EGM for certain proposal especially if the stock had a good run few days before. Its more like short term traders cashing in just in case tge proposal didnt get thru. 11/11 good run could be their short covering
i think some people worry about the budget,thinking some new taxes could be introduced, some people took profit and stay out for awhile.now no new taxes, and Us/china trade war, subsides for now as they reached certain agreement,i think investors would come back in a big bang,next week.
Rm5 TP quite low oh,after share split more easy to go up and if success comply to Shariah rule, more fund to come.2020 and 2021 is the biggest harvest year for GCB
I still not holding any share till now... i ride much of the trend last year... hope the trend continue this year and your guys can ride with it too...
RHB Report says TP RM6.00 but the following passage even more exciting:
"We like the stock for its re-rating catalysts and unique position to ride Asia’s growing demand for cocoa-based products, coupled with its wide and solid customer base that should ensure long-term sustainability of earnings. In a blue sky scenario, our TP could reach MYR7.40, based on FY20F P/E of 16x (matching the local indirect peers and closer to the market P/E of 16x-17x) once/if: i. The counter is institutionalised (institutional shareholding now estimated at less than 5%; ii. It becomes shariah-compliant; iii. There is improved market awareness of the consistency of earnings; iv. There is improved liquidity."
don't be silly , many stocks equiped with those 4 “Hopeful”factors ,currently is in deplorable state, so forget it;the real strength coming from ,excellent strategic business positioning in US and EU, big consumer markets for coco products
